As the Retail and Entertainment Knowledge Community Chair, I would like to invite you to join us in our inaugural conference in New York City examining how entertainment architecture, specifically theatre and performing arts venues, have been instrumental in revitalizing a critical urban district - 42nd Street, from a derelict area back into a vital and vibrant entertainment district and international tourism draw.
Discover how community activism, strategic planning, sound urban design and corporate involvement combined effectively to redevelop this historic entertainment district.
For more information please check out our website at: http://network.aia.org/RetailandEntertainment/home/conference
and we look forward to seeing you in the Big Apple!
